2) Lubrication
(1) Installing Magnetic Chip Remover
A. Attach the magnetic chip remover that is in the
accessory box to the oil pump inside the bed.
(See Fig. 2)
Do not use the magnet for other purposes. Use of the
sewing machine without the magnet may cause
malfunction and has a bearing on the machines
durability.
[Fig.2]
Magnet
Oil pump
(2) Lubricating the oil fan
A. Fill the lubricant up to the HIGHmark. (See
Fig.3.)
B. The lubricant must be SUNSTARs oil provided
exclusively for industrial sewing machines or
SHELLs Tellus C10.
C. If the oil in use is down to the LOWmark, fill in
to HIGHimmediately.
D. Once every two weeks is deemed the appropriate
interval for oil refills.
3) Belt Tension Adjustment
Sufficient loosening of the fixed nuts, after motor
installation would create tension to the belt. Tighten the
fixed nut first and then tighten the fixed nut to an
unmovable position. (See Fig. 4)
[Fig.3]
[Fig.4]
12
4) Belt Cover
(1) Use the clamp screws in the machine body and the
washer to fasten the belt cover A. Installation of
the belt cover will be easier if the sewing machine is laid
down to an appropriate degree. (See Fig. 5)
[Fig.5]
(2) Attach the belt cover B to the table. Please exercise
caution so that the belt does not get jammed inside the
belt cover B. (See Fig. 6)
[Fig.6]
13
5) Location Detector Assembly and
Adjustment
(1) Installing the location detector
A. Installing on the servo motor (in-built location detector)
A location detector sensor is attached to the back side of
the arm. The appropriate clearance between the location
detector and the pulley is 0.5mm. (See Fig. 7)
After assembling the parts in the numbered order as in Fig. 8, adjust the synchronization shaft horizontally such that the
photo film is placed at the center of the photo interrupter as in Fig. 9. Then fasten it tightly with two fixing screws using a
hexagonal wrench.
[Caution]
Assemble after adjusting the position such that the letters UPand DOWNare facing the front side when
seen from the pulley as is shown in Fig. 8.
The film will already be adjusted by default.
(2) Installing the 470 motor
6) Location Adjustment of Location Detector
(1) For in-built location detectors
Adjust the up-stop position of the needle such that the white carved sign on the pulley is in a straight line with the
carved sign on the arm when the needle has stopped in the air. That adjustment can be made by loosening the pulleys
clamp screw on the side with N?U carved signs and moving it sideways. Adjust the down-stop position of the needle
such that the needle is on the point of moving up when the needle bar is at the lowest point. This adjustment can be made
by loosening the pulleys clamp screw on the side with ND carved signs and moving it sideways. (See Fig. 10 & 11)

Turn the pulley manually to position the needle bar at the lowest point about to move back up. Then, loosen the fixed
screws on the film as in Fig. 8 and align the DOWNfilm with the film adjustment baseline and the sensor housing
baseline as in Fig. 12 & 13. Tighten the fixed screws just enough so that the film does not rotate. In the same way, place
the thread take-up lever at the highest point, then loosen the fixed screws again and adjust the UPfilm as in shown the
figure. Be careful that the DOWNfilm A that was tightened before does not move when adjusting the UPfilm.

Check for Stop Position of Sewing Machine
Check for the machine stop position after moving the needle
up and down by pushing the reverse button. See whether the
carved sign on the arm and the white carved sign on the
pulley are aligned when the needle is in an up position. If not,
adjustment to the photo film of the location detector or to the
location of the magnetic holder will be necessary since there
may be problems with the trimming. In other words, the
needles up-stop position should be identical with the stop
position of the needle bar after the trimming operation, which
would signify that there is nothing wrong with the operation
timing of the trimmer. (See Fig. 14.) (Refer to the explanation
about the Adjustment of Location Detector on page 14.)

Control and Adjustment of the Sewing Machine
Caution
Always turn off the power when mounting a needle. If the operator mistakenly steps on the pedal
while the power is on, the machine will start automatically and can result in physical injuries.
When using clutch motor, be aware that the motor will continue to rotate for a while even after the
power is switched off due to inertia. Start to work on the sewing machine only after the motor has
come to a complete stop.
1) Needle Insertion
With the needle groove facing left, insert the needle tip
into the upper end of the stopper hole and fasten the
needle with the clamp screw. (See Fig. 15)
[Fig. 15]
2) Adjustment of needle bar
As in Fig. 14, remove the needle bar adjusting rubber plug
from the face plate and spin the pulley to place the needle
bar at the lowest position. Loosen the needle bar holding
screw and move the needle bar to align the lower end of
the needle bar lower bushing with the punch mark of
the lowest position of the needle bar. Then tightly fasten the
needle bar screw and put back the rubber plug to the
original position.
[Fig. 16]
16
3) Adjustment of needle and looper timing
- As in the figure, use the pulley to adjust the distance
between the bottom of the needle bar and the needle plate
face to be 12.8mm.
[Fig. 17]
- Adjust the distance between the retainer and the hooked needle to be 0.30.5mm, the distance between the needle and the
looper to be 0.10.2mm, and the distance between the looper groove and the bottom of the retainer to be 0.5mm.
[Fig. 18] [Fig. 19]
- Lift the needle bar by 10.8mm from the lowest position
of the needle bar and align the tip of the looper with the
needle.
[Fig. 20]
4)
Lubrication Adjustment of Thread Take-Up Lever
As in Fig. 21, oil flow is at its maximum when the mark
on the head of the oil flow control pin and the center of
the hole on the thread take-up lever crank shaft is directly
aligned. In contrast, oil flow decreases when the mark is
turned closer to the corner of the link cam washer.
Furthermore, if the mark passes the corner of the link cam
washer, oil will not flow at all.
[Fig. 21]
17
Caution
To check the lubrication volume of the looper, make sure hands or lubrication check
sheets do not touch moving parts such as feeding tools.
5) Adjustment of the lubrication to the
lower shaft
(1) Checking the oil supply level of hook
A. After racing the sewing machine for three minutes (at
an appropriate speed), secure the oil flow checking
paper as shown in Fig. 22 and run the machine for
about five seconds. Then check the oil tape marked
on the paper.
B. Check the oil supply level three times. The
appropriate level of oil is when the oil level neither
exceeds the maximum amount nor falls below the
minimum level. (If the lubrication volume is too
small, the looper might be damaged. If the
lubrication volume is too high, it may smudge the
sewing fabric.)
(2) Adjustment of the Oil Supply Level
Turn the oil flow adjusting screw in the lower shaft
front bushing in a clockwise direction for more oil flow.
Turn it counterclockwise for less oil.
[Fig. 22]
Caution
Turn off the power when adjusting the lower thread tension. If the operator mistakenly steps
down on the pedal while switched on, the machine will start automatically and can cause
physical injuries.
When using the clutch motor, be aware that the motor will continue to rotate for a while after
the power is switched off. Start to work only after the motor has come to a complete stop.

6) Placement of upper thread
As in the figure, the thread tension can be adjusted at the point 2mm away from the central point. Adjust the tension to be
very weak.
Caution
Turn off the power switch when routing the upper thread. If the operator mistakenly presses
down on the pedal while switched on, the machine will start automatically and can cause
physical injuries.
When using the clutch motor, be aware that the motor will continue to rotate for a while after
the power is switched off. Start to work on the sewing machine only after the motor has come
to a complete stop.
19
7) Upper Thread Adjustment
(1) Main thread adjustment device
The tension of the upper thread gets tighter if the tension
adjusting nut as in Fig. 25 is turned in a clockwise
direction and it gets looser when turned in the opposite
direction. The tension of the thread should differ
according to the sewing conditions which depend on the
material, thread, stitch length, etc. So the tension should
be adjusted as seen fit for the conditions.
(2)
Tension adjustment of thread take up lever spring
As in Fig. 25, use a driver in the thread adjustment shaft
groove to adjust the spring tension. The thread take up
lever spring grows tighter when the driver is turned
clockwise and looser when turned counterclockwise.
(3) Auxiliary thread adjuster
Turn the auxiliary thread tension adjusting nut in
clockwise direction to make the remaining thread length
on the needle after trimming shorter and in
counterclockwise direction to make it longer, as shown
in Fig. 26. The appropriate length of the upper thread
remaining after trimming is 30~40mm.
(4) Thread release control
The thread release takes place simultaneously with the movement of the trimming solenoid. As seen in Fig. 27, the
amount of thread release is controlled by moving the fixed position of the thread release wire, which is connected with
the clutch lever, left and right. Loosen the two fixing nuts and pull the cable wire to the left. Then fasten the nuts
to release the thread to a large extent. If the cable wire is pushed to the right and the nuts tightened, the thread
release happens on a lesser scale. After adjustment, tighten the nuts once again and check whether the opening of the
thread guide plate of the thread adjuster is about 0.5-1mm when the thread releaser is in operation. There should be no
opening when the thread releaser is not in operation; the thread guide plates should be touching back to back. The
moving stroke of the thread release lever is 11mm. Adjust such that the thread guide plates do not open when the
cable wire is pulled about 0-8mm and that the plates open when the cable wire is pulled about 8-11mm. (See Fig. 27.)

Caution
After disassembling and adjusting a safety device, always place it back to the original position
and check whether it functions as intended.
Use both hands when pushing the machine backward or returning it to the original position.
Due to the weight of the machine, your hand can get stuck in the machine if you should slip.
When adjusting the machine with the switch on, be sure to pay extreme caution.
Only trained engineers must perform troubleshooting or inspection of the machine.
For electrical repair or inspection, consult with qualified technicians or agent.
8)
Height and Tension Adjustment of Presser Foot
(1) As in Fig. 28, remove the rubber plug in the face plate
and place the presser foot on the needle plate. Then,
loosen the presser bar fixing screw and adjust the
height of the presser bar. The presser foot will fall
when the presser bar is lifted and rise when the presser
bar is moved down. Move the presser foot lifter
manually to place the bottom face of the presser foot
5.5mm above the top face of the needle plate and tighten
the presser bar fixing screws firmly.
(2) Tension adjustment
As described in Fig. 28, the tension of the presser foot
will grow stronger when the tension adjusting screw is
turned clockwise and weaker when turned
counterclockwise. Make sure to screw in the fixing nut
after adjustment.
9) Adjustment of Automatic Knee-Lifter (Optional)
An automatic knee-lifter will be attached to the sewing machine at point of delivery. The lifting amount of the presser foot
when automatically lifting the knee is controlled by the automatic knee-lifting solenoid shaft crank. First, loosen the
solenoid cover fixing screw and remove the solenoid cover. If the solenoid shaft is moved left and the fixing screw
is tightened when the solenoid crank shaft fixing screw is loose, the lifting amount of the presser foot grows smaller. If the
solenoid shaft is moved to the right, the lifting amount will grow bigger. Assemble the cover back after the adjustment is
completed. (The presser foot lifting amount for the automatic knee-lifter will be set to 13mm by default at point of delivery.)
